I think this is going to look exactly as advertised. Can't wait as I think this building will be the start of something amazing in this part of the city.

I'm looking forward to seeing the east elevation uncovered, which is the main entrance - expecting that to be even more impressive.

What a difference to an area does one building make.

I am very happy with how this building is turning out.

The half arch opening is going to be stunning when done. Great height, and draws you into to the plaza. I included a tree canopy shot looking south down 123st.

This will lease up quickly. I trust they'll nail the Annex too.

May be an unpopular opinion, but to me this is looking like a pretty disappointing stucco box. In hindsight, it should have been fairly obvious from the renders.

I think that the final details, tenants and lighting will set it apart.

You're seeing it at its worst right now, they did stay true to the renders with this so called "stucco box" and I hope they continue to do so, because what made this such an attractive development was always the details; the splashes of colour, beautiful lightning, wood accents around the outside and most importantly the street interaction and life that comes with it.

I'm not totally sold on how this is turning out so far, hopefully these finishes that are coming really pull it together

I think everyone should hold off on deciding how things are going to look before they are finished. Look at Manchester Square and the Sync111 apartments; everyone was saying how ugly they were in construction and then "oh, doesn't look as bad as I thought" once actually finished. We will see.

Manchester Square is exactly as ugly as I expected - but your point is well taken

I think the final touches will make a big difference. Ground floor retail and glass is also a massive difference vs 121.

I’d argue this will show what’s possible with stucco. It’s obviously not trying to be hat 122. But the courtyard and edges will set it apart.
